It's top banana, just come back from a 100 mile round trip to Cambride on the A14, I particularly like the way the cars in my rear view mirror get very small very quickly! The production map isn't as economical as the original development map, so we're looking at a fixing that in the next couple of weeks. But a 200bhp+ diesel that does 42mpg on a fast run isn't too bad. Whereas before it was a 187bhp diesel which did 50+mpg on the same fast run, which would you prefer? I like the idea of switching between the two, watch this space........

a - second car is a 911with 3.8 rs motor
b - have a noisy exhaust which cost a stack and gave zero extra bhp

a car has to sound right in my opinion - barking and popping on overrun ideally

needless to say a four pot diesel will never sound good with an aftermarket exhaust! - and regards to extra power with diesel exhausts - the flow nature at low revs in a tdi shows naff all gain in power... that said a larger diameter section just after the turbo will increase turbine wind up a little
